To be fair, I don't think size is the problem. They've arguably a more complete squad. If we wanted to catch up this summer, we probably needed a CB, RW and CF too.

All good, thanks.
I think it comes down to quality, especially up front. City's reserve front line includes Bony, Nasri and Navas, Chelsea's Oscar, Willian, Remy and Falcao (lol). Ours? Fellaini, Wilson, and Young.
That's what I worry about. The lack of quality in depth. I think if we'd signed one more quality forward we would be in vastly different position.
Victor changed his relationship status from In a Relationship to It's Complicated.
Two unhappy keepers at OT.
Its a pity Woodie fecked up the Pedro bid, he would have been so perfect for us and Martial would have much less pressure on him.
Ours is probably going to be Fellaini, Martial and Young. That's a very good back up squad.
Their reserve frontlines are better then our first choice.
We need to get a shotgun divorce!
Chelsea win the transfer window with the signings of Papy Djilobodji and Michael Hector. Feck Smalling and Blind, these are the lads we should have got in for our back line.
LvG needs to come up with a two keeper formation.
Valdes as a sweeper , and can't touch the ball? I sense a lot of confusion and misery in that formation.
Who starts in the front four then? Rooney, Mata, Memphis and Herrera? That then leaves 3 competing for two spots in midfield.
It feels weird knowing there is just under 3 hours left until the window closes. I think it's safe to say everything is done now.
Bony rarely plays and is injured, Navas is poor and Nasri's an attitude Chelsea ok but light at the back - you've left at least one player out of ours -either Martial or Herrera will be back-up assuming no other signiings and not including Pereira or Lingard
I'm probably one of LvG's biggest fans but I've had a terrible sinking feeling all day. I don't have a problem with any of the outs, I would have been satisfied with the DDG deal but our attacking options leave me deeply concerned. God I hope I'm wrong and we have an amazing rabbit to pull out...
Except for City whose net spend is more than United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs and Everton combined.
3? isnt it 11pm it closes?
Nope 6pm
It closes at 6pm today.
Nope 6pm
Oh, well thats us done then.
11pm is CL registration
Imagine how crazy it is going to be next summer...
That'll strengthen the U-21's.
2.5 hours to complete any signings.
Deals can be done up until 8PM provided the clubs have submitted a deal sheet...
Well, to get the deal sheets in, there's a few hours more after that to cross the t's and dot the i's.
Possibly still a faint hope of a domestic signing then...am available to drive Manè if needed.
Still convinced the fact we haven't announced Martial yet that there will be more than one signing announced - or is that too logical?
Poor Jim White. All the really exciting shit happened yesterday. (lolz)
All hope is gone for me, don't see it happening.
Too......hopeful.
You're a true muppet! I'm clinging on too!
Feck, looks like Charlie Austin is staying at QPR. That was the ace up our sleeve.
